lol. vin just told me tt girls are weird creatures and he names some. and it's true! lol. so funny when i see it.
1. they will still wear heels when they know heels hurt and will cause them to have blisters
2. MOST girls spend half of their life backstabbing, talking back about other girl friends of how they snatch away best friends etc
3. always take 50mins when they say 5 more mins to choose clothes, shopping or put on make up. BUT they really mean 5 mins when they say 5 mins more for their guy to do things
true or not?
and this is very true too. must read!
Nature has something to teach us here.
It's telling us: ìNot all seeds grow. In life, most seeds never growî.
So if you really want to make something happen, you had better try more than once."
This might mean:You'll attend twenty interviews to get one job. You'll interview forty people to find one good employee.
You'll talk to fifty people to sell one house, one car, one vacuum cleaner, one insurance policy, or a business idea
And you might meet a hundred acquaintances just to find one special friend.
IN A NUTSHELL: Successful people fail more often. But they plant more seeds.
When things are beyond your control, here's something that you must NOT DO so as to avoid misery in your life:
- You must not decide how you think the world SHOULD be.
- You must not make rules for how everyone SHOULD behave.
- Then, when the world doesn't obey your rules, you get angry!
- That's what miserable people do!
On the other hand, let's say you expect that:
-Friends SHOULD return favours.
-People SHOULD appreciate you.
-Planes SHOULD arrive on time.
-Everyone SHOULD be honest.
- Your husband or best friend SHOULD remember your birthday.
These expectations may sound reasonable. But often, these things won't happen! So you end up frustrated and disappointed.
There's a better strategy:Demand less, and instead, have preferences!
For things that are beyond your control, tell yourself:
"I would prefer this, but if that happens, itís OK too!"
This is really a change in mindset. It is a shift in attitude, and it gives you more peace of mind ... This is really a change in mindset. It is a shift in attitude, and it gives you more peace of mind ...
You prefer that people are polite ... but when they are rude, it doesn't ruin your day. You prefer sunshine ... but if it rains, it is ok too!
To become happier, we either need to:
a) Change the world, or
b) Change our thinking.It is easier to change our Thinking!
IN A NUTSHELL: It is not the problem that is the issue, but rather it is your attitude attending to the problem that is the problem.
